Amnesty International and Committee to Protect Journalists Spearhead Campaign to Free Ramon Ebalé

CRNI joins Amnesty International and CPJ in urging the immediate release of Ramon Ebalé, known by his pen name Jamon y Queso. He is being held at the Black Beach Prison in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea.

“It is outrageous that Ramón Nsé Esono Ebalé should be snatched off the streets of Equatorial Guinea and jailed for weeks just because he writes or draws critically about the country’s top public figure,” said CPJ Africa Program Coordinator Angela Quintal. “We call on authorities to release him immediately.”Join the Amnesty International campaign and demand Ebalé’s release by getting in touch with the government of Equatorial Guinea.
